Setting Goals and Achieving Them
Make Your Goal a REALITY!
I had a wonderful visitor to my website ask me a question and after I answered her reply back began with Happy Day!
This struck a chord with me because during the last part of June I was accessing 2013 and started to get down on myself about my progress for this year. Now in my case it wasn’t a weight loss goal though staying healthy and fit is always part of the mix now-a-days.
It was more about my promise to do more with this website, be more consistent on you tube and stay more connected with the social media that aids in me helping people with their weight loss, health and HCG questions during their journey and beyond.
Plus on a personal level I also made a goal to stay better connected with family and friends.
Well let’s just guess what happened instead. In January I fell on my treadmill then ended up with a very bad infection that almost got me hospitalized.
I’m not saying this as excuses just merely being honest about the fact that I basically allowed myself to be “stuck” in Jan & Feb.
Though time marched on really the only thing I have been consistent with is being a “over the top” good employee for the company I work for ( I put a lot of my own time into helping the clients).
And I make sure I always exercise. I thought I was also being pretty good at making sure I answered any questions that came my way from you guys.
Then I realized a missed a few and was mortified! Especially the you tube comments. my email stopped sending the alerts to me and I wasn’t logging in so I didn’t even know.
Now here is why I am telling you all this.
Most of us use January 1st as our time to make goals and make positive changes.
What if that new start just didn’t happen the way we planned. July could easily become the month of self loathing,guilt and despair.I say “No,No,No!!!
Instead of Happy New Year! – July is Happy Day!!
From this point on we have the FREEDOM (4th of July…get it 😉 ) To start a NEW positive direction!
Let’s do this – Who is with me?
You know who else motivated me? There is a lovely lady named Connie. Last year she went thought just about every BAD a person could think of. Between health and relationship met downs I could tell when communicating with her she was in the lowest of low places. I honestly didn’t think I had much else I could do to help.
Well wouldn’t you know the last time she reached out to ask how I was I assumed she would have bad news to share and my heart dropped. INSTEAD…She is doing GREAT! She is on HCG losing fat getting health and is even doing vlogs on You tube – YAY!
When I told her I felt “stuck” in Jan/ Feb she replied that she could understand if I was “burned out”.
I read that and thought, Oh my GOSH! She is doing great and it looks to her like I’m going through a rough patch.
No burn out for me!!! I plan on Rocking the rest of 2013 – Who is with me!?
At this point I could list the usual ways people can make a plan and set out to accomplish it.
What I want to do instead is ask those that read this post to comment what they think has worked for them.
Or if someone needs help say what you think the stumbling block is and let all try and help each other get where we want to be.
Weight loss goals, exercise goals, health goals, people goals – Positive Improvement in any area that you choose will make each day, week and month so much more fulfilling and rewarding!!
Thanks for letting me share this pep talk…My goal in doing so is to help you and ME both. 🙂
OMG, I’m honored that you mentioned me and I actually motivated you? Wow!! I’m so glad you are back and you are exercising regularly!! That is awesome. I plan on going back and watching some of your videos on P3. I start P3 in like 9 days. I’m very nervous. I’m down 26 pounds so far and yes I’m going to Rock the next of the year!! You don’t know how much I needed this today!!
